We Can’t Just Skip Thanksgiving Can We? ~ Thankful Thursdays

Posted by on Nov 27, 2014 in Empowerment, Inspiration, Pure EmPowerment, Thankful Thursdays | 0 comments

I have a confession to make.  I have to be really, really honest on this Thankful Thursday Thanksgiving day. Here goes, there have been moments I have thought to myself, “Can’t we just skip Thanksgiving? Really, let’s just get on with Christmas! However,this year it seems every store is jumping the gun and moving onto Christmas for the last several months even…  Moving faster than I have even wanted too and that says a lot. I love Christmas! I mean LOVE Christmas! I love the  decorating,...

{ Let me honest, spelling is not my gift!  But touching lives is … Fortunately,  I married a man who is a writer and editor.   Sometimes he  is available to edit before I post a blog – and sometimes not. But I know God has called me to speak and write, and  timing is everything. What                                                                    matters most is when I am led to write, I know I am to write. Thank God that Winters The Writer will fix it...

I have shared this blog in the past but feel for many it would be perfect today on this Thankful Thursday. New Day ~ New You ~ New Beginning Every day is a perfect time to start living life in our passion and purpose! That is why I wrote,  The Stepping Into Purpose Inspirational Guide, I think self-examination, goal setting and getting a plan together is great  any time of the year.  But most importantly, you must want to focus on YOU. I am not talking about making a New Year’s resolution where you try to...

Thankful Thursdays ~ Remember The Knights Of the Old Code

Posted by on Sep 4, 2014 in Empowerment, Stepping Into Purpose, Thankful Thursdays | 0 comments

On This Thankful Thursday,  I want to invite all of  us to take a moment to remember the Knights of the Old Code … A  couple of years ago I was on a camping trip deep in the woods with a bunch of rambunctious scouts.  Sometimes after a long day of cleaning and hard housework my old body reminds me what it is like to camp. The last time I camped I slept on the ground and was dinner for more than a few bugs and my body ached from head to toe.  Camping makes for a great weekend hanging out in the woods...

Thankful Thursdays ~ Perilous Times

I have to be honest, last week was a really hard week for me. I wrote several blogs for my  Thankful Thursday but I did not  post  any of them.  They were just not right. Frankly, most were just too sad. Needless to say, writing and finding just the blog can take work.  Sometimes they are easy to write and sometimes they are not.  This was indeed the later. As I said, it was a hard week for me.   But I finally wrote a blog I felt was perfect and ironically, when I finally finished it and was ready to hit...

Thankful Thursdays ~ Put On A Garment Of Praise

Posted by on Aug 14, 2014 in Empowerment, Inspiration, Thankful Thursdays | 0 comments

This week has been hard for many of us.  We all face death. It was a death that was unexpected and it came far too soon for all of us. It was hard hearing of of Robin Williams’ death, but it was also hard for me to read the views so many had on suicide and depression.  My grief is also layered with the continued persecution of Christians in Iraq.  All this led me to thinking of my own loss and grief of my mom and dad. It made me think of my own  grief and battle with sadness and depression. So on this...
